Educate me about recycling.
What can and can't we recycle with city pickup? Bonus points if you know rules specific to Leander!
We usually toss in paper type stuff - magazines, newspaper, junk mail, etc. DH tosses in his beer cans. The bare basics.
I'm wondering what the rules are on plastics though - milk cartons, dishwasher soap bottles, etc? Cardboard? Glass - certain glass ok or all glass?
Thanks!
(I tried looking on the city website for any info and couldn't find anything.)
Re: Educate me about recycling.
I'm convinced they don't pick up anything other than glass/aluminum and the occassional newspaper.
but we do throw the plastic milk cartons in there and they don't reject them, so maybe they do take certain plastics?
found this on a non-city site... not sure if its accurate or not:
Leander
I bookmarked this a while back. It's a pretty interesting article about the challenges of plastics recycling.
